Ballerina in prep 23
Pastel on pastel paper15 total reviews
Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is a nice, seeming more loose pastel painting. There are a lot of really good things like the skin, the chair top that is shown is really reasistic. The back against the chair and other white fabric flowing seems a little distorted but maybe its just me. Still good work.

Comment from Highfive
It's been a while. Have things going? Very nice work of art here the dark verses light colors works nicely for strong contrast. The simplicity is excellent creating a very nice work of art. The gesture in the figure of the woman work nice with the uses of the done pastels, with lovely skin tone. Very nice work. Thanks for sharing.

Apparently, this ballerina is on a break. Her serious expression shows how important it is to tie the pointe shoes the right way. I like the touch of impressionism. The lighting amplifies the expression and pose of the ballerina. The colors are pleasant and adequate. The dancer stands well out from the neutral background. The Pastel is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

Cool,James! : )
That's a fine looking creation,my friend!
It reminds me of several pastel creations that an old friend of mine drew before she switched over to concentrating her efforts on 'Erotic' artwork 'full time'!

This is very pretty. The movement is evident.... it is so graceful as she leans over to yie her dancing she.. . You have captured in your art the true delicacy of a balerina. The fairness if her skin and the fragility of her garment. Clever pastel work

Your signature subject. This is the first subject I ever saw of yours. Look at the white dress. If I painted this the whole dress would be white. But yours has the folds and creases with shadowing. I cannot paint. But I know a fantastic painter when I see one. Excellent.

Beautiful painting of the ballerina that is getting ready for the performance.
Great details and posture that shows her skin and muscle so well.
Lovely white dress, I love the glowing white nicely contrasting with the dark background.
Thank you for sharing.

A very nice pastel drawing. When I see a ballerina I always get the impression that they are all legs and arms and this image reinforces that impression.

Comment from Elyse Johnson
I think this art is fantastic! I love how well-blended the colors are, the skin tone is simply beautiful (especially since you did not just stick with one color, which a lot of people can end up doing), I love the flowing of the dress, and you did very well with perspective!
I'm being picky, but I would have blended in some of the reflections.
But that's me being super picky, this picture is fantastic overall!
